(Anonymous) 2009-11-11 07:46 pm (UTC)(link)I scribble every day. Multiple times. When I'm trying to wake up at school and when my brain is melting from schoolwork and in my bed when I'm trying to sleep so I can just draw instead of being left alone with my thoughts.
But, err, you scribble at parties, you say? Aaah I couldn't imagine drawing at parties D: D: D: I don't know what it is, I have public drawing anxiety or something. No one can see what I draw in real life ever You should've seen me at this one crowded art class, my hands were shaking real bad and I was so nervous and I ended up just acting like a total idiot and orz orz orz I don't even get that nervous before exams arghh BUT ANYWAYS. If your at a party, doesn't that mean that you get a lot of people coming up to you and asking you about what you're drawing? Maybe you could try sketching at a cafe or something! And draw whatever feels right for you, buddy. I totally hear you on not liking to draw buildings though. Especially pictures of cities, that stuff is just death. You've got to put in all those perspective lines too. Buildings just require too much ruler-action, which sucks, because half the time I can't even draw straight lines with rulers anyways. They always end up diagonal :(
I'm still not convinced on how not-deathly-hard pretty poetry (or prose poetry) can be. It is an area that will forever be a mystery to me.
New source material is always a beautiful thing, since it comes so scarcely. I'm of the mind that I don't really care about getting new characters as much as I do getting strips about character that haven't been featured yet. Despite this, I will admit that Australia's character design was pretty over-due. I mean, it's Australia! No place quite like Australia. Well, maybe New Zealand, but I'm sure some of them would resent me saying that. Also, this never really occurred to me before, but I have met a surprising amount of people who went to live in Australia for a little while. It's almost as if it's the number one study-abroad spot here (I don't think I could handre it, though. Too hot. Also: deadly animals).
Yeah. There's always the chance you might be vague about what's going on and we'd have no idea as to how bad it is with you, though :(
I don't get not taking university classes seriously either. I mean, even if someone else was paying for you, whether it's parents or scholarships, it's still worth thousands of dollars. I couldn't even imagine flunking out of university either. Maybe it's because I always sort of knew I'd be going to university? Truth be told, I pretty much spent my childhood assuming that most people went to university. As for showing appreciation towards teachers, ah, well, the whole speaking up in class bit might be hard cause we don't really have classes in the traditional sense, but at least I bother them fairly often? I enjoy asking them things unrelated to the course more than I do looking them up, at least. They tend to get very. . . excited. One of them, depending on what you ask, sometimes has to end up standing and just practically jumping everywhere when he explains stuff, it's so precious :')
Please tell me that at the very least, you aren't falling asleep at four in the afternoon? One in the morning I can understand, but otherwise I think that's maybe a sign that you should get more of a little something-something, yeah? /motherly tone.
Ah, so you wouldn't leave fandom then? Listen, as the Hetalia fandom lets out a relieved sigh.
Jesus, 60,000 words? That's more than NaNo requires you do! Then you say you have more than that. Would you be bummed if you happened to all of it?

(Anonymous) 2009-11-11 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)Hohoho, you've got an expert in Icelandic literature? Have you got anything with them? At the very least, have you been bothering them? I don't recall you bringing that up, though that could be my fault.
but many of the people in my class (I studied it in first-year university). Aaaand that's pretty much all I have to say about that.
. . . I take it that they didn't like it? Way to leave me hanging there, bro.
Well, nowadays I think lots of modern buildings get torn down once they're out of style and deemed ugly, or when someone else wants to move there. The only stuff that isn't torn down is the stuff that has already been there for god knows how long, and it's for the sake of preserving history and culture. So while they might be safer, they probably aren't being built to last thousands of years because they know it'll get torn down. And, well, it goes without saying that they didn't have such means of building like that whenever they liked back in the day. Or that philosophy. Ohh, which makes me wonder, how did people back in the day see the future? Did they just imagine things being exactly the same for as long as humanity lived? You probably wouldn't think that kind of thing if you had even just the most rudimentary understanding of how history's panned out, but, err I have no idea how much historical knowledge people a thousand years ago had (and the changes weren't as great as they are now but still). ahh, I dunno, I'm not expecting them to be imaging a Star Trek-esque world, of course not, but I just wonder how much people thought we'd change.
DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS SUBJECT.
I think it's probably too late to get pictures of leaves and the fall now :( I wish we had a nice looking fall here, and by that I mean not so dry and not so yellow. I want some nice orange and red leaves, like they have out in the east. Then again, it's sort of yellow-ish here for most of the year anyways. Yellow-er than most, anyways. It gets green pretty late either late, and stops being green pretty early because it's so damn dry. It's hard to complain about rain when you rarely get it, or so I think. Though sometimes it does get annoying if it rains for a week straight, because while I like the rain, no one wants to get out during it, so you're stuck at home.
Ohhh, I know that feeling. You probably dislike that Can/Pol fic because you know how much you might've improved, or you know you could do better. Thing is, no one else really knows if you can "do a better job" or if it's "not your best work," for everyone else good is good. And since it was written last year, I don't think you should use it to judge how good you think your work is now. Personally, I think the greatest self-esteem booster in this whole creative business is to look at something you did a year or few ago, cringe at how bad it is, and then feel good that you've improved. Even if it's just little things. If that's making any sense.
To me it seems like you've said that you've got a lot you're planning to do during Christmas. Fic-wise, anyways. Do you guys not get lots of work over Christmas?
Pity that not everyone can regard journals as "DO NOT TOUCH" objects. I'm terribly paranoid about where I leave my stuff, cause rest be assured someone's going to end up looking through it. People say they don't snoop, but I don't know if I should trust them on that.
I'm surprised you finished yours so soon too! Two days man. And here I am, taking nearly a goddamn month to write it ;___; I said I'd have it done by the weekend but, I don't know. aieojtoaiejt. couldn't brain. . And I went off on a lot of tangets. And aren't you not supposed to start sentances with "and," cause I swear I've heard that somewhere and I usually try to avoid it.
okay well
adios amigos
I hope you got a poppy for today.
. . .HAHAH CAPTCHA IS OCTOBER CRISIS
